FAQ

How many times can I download my games or software?

You can download an unlimited number of times for personal use. To re-download, go to Your Games and Software Library through the "Your Digital Items" link at the top of the screen and click the download button.

Can I download and install to multiple computers?


For video games: Each game manufacturer has a different policy on how many installations are allowed with each product key. If you run out of installations for the product key you originally purchased from Amazon, please contact Customer Service and we will happily provide you with another key at no additional charge. You can install an unlimited number of times for personal use, however additional copies of the game for friends or family must be purchased separately.

What if I already own a game? Can I trade or give the game to someone else?


If the game activates on another service such as Steam or Origin then yes you can do what you like with the extra key(s). This includes games included in bundles provided they have the proper keys.

Notes on price matching:

1. Amazon DVG doesn't match physical disc deals
2. AND doesn't match International digital download deals - i.e. Gamersgate, GreenManGaming, GOG & GetGamesGo.

Max Payne 3 bought.

I waited for these sales because I knew they would be coming within a month of the game's release.
 
Waiting for Dead Space 2 to go on sale will buy for $15-20

I think steam had it for around $10 a while back.

I swear I saw that at Target for $8.98 not too long ago.

Good deals



It goes for $5 regularly

Not even; $5 only weeks ago.

yep, bought DS2 on steam for $5 last sale.

We run $5 Dead Space and Dead Space 2 so often it is kind of a running joke around the office. I'll make sure to drop a note the next time we do it again.

Cheers,
Tony
 
If a game isn't redeemable on Steam, are they DRM free or no? I'm not familiar with downloading straight from Amazon or anything.

Max Payne 3 and Spec Ops for me. Fuck it, even if my computer's a couple months away from being built.

Same here. Really interested in the apparently awesome narrative of Spec Ops, and for $25 practically day one, I'll bite a short campaign.

Was The Darkness 2 any good? I remember loving the first one

I really enjoyed it/was an avid fan of the first game. I made an OT way back when, and some had FOV issues (later remedied for PC). I really liked the quad-wielding mechanic, and the narrative wasn't as strong as the first title, but it still was pretty captivating as a Darkness fan. And more Mike Patton! The game definitely had character.

Amazon makes me happy. I'm definitely in for Spec Ops, and will probably go for the 2k bundle for Mafia II (although I wish it was stand-alone!). Amazing work Tony!

There are EA games in the OP! :p

opps hehe, i had my mind in the bundles section. I know tony mentioned the THQ bundle happening later in july(maybe). I remember there was a Need for Speed bundle amazon had a while back( not sure if i dreamt it) which i regret not getting.

tony got DRM-free games a few months ago. He tries to get them whenever they can, or at the very least try to offer steam and non-steam versions of a game. usually the games you download off amazon are the rips of the retail copies.

EDIT: sorry for the double post

I've never played a Max Payne game. Should I get MP3?

Considering you have never played 1 and 2 go ahead knock yourself out. But if you did play MP1+2 i would of told you to avoid as its not a proper Max Payne game. Expect shitloads of cutscenes and gameplay lasts at 5minutes tops before encountering another cutscene.

For people pissy about such things, Syndicate requires Origin to run. Personally, I've had zero problems with this, but other people might not be cool with it. I think the game is a great deal at that price. Bought it for $25 and don't regret it.

I will say yes since it's a good game, but you should also check out MP1 and MP2 if you get a chance. They can usually be found for dirt cheap during these sales, and they won't take you long to get through.
 

Des0lar

will learn eventually
Tony, if I bought the plentyful Paradox package some weeks ago, am I sool concerning Steam keys? Back then only Sword if the Stars II and Crusader kings (and Magicka) werd Steam activation keys. If I knew this time all games were steam redeemable I would have waited :/
